Accompanying data for Verro et al. "How well do the regional atmospheric and oceanic models describe the Antarctic sea ice albedo?" (submitted to the Cryosphere).For details see: https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-2025-386 The newest version of the dataset, made in July 2025, includes corrected MAR data (with latitude and longitude), updated MetROMS-UHel simulations, and additional variables—such as total cloud cover—incorporated following the paper's peer review process. tar.gz file contains 61GB data. --- Directory structure:ISPOL_case: HCLIM: alb_i, albl, asn_i, siconca, sit, snd, tas, vas, uas, ps, hurs, clt; HCLIM_default_settings_Fig2: alb_i, asn_i, siconca and snd MAR: one file with SH, SRF, SOL, MSK, AL, FRA, TT, SP, RH, UV, ZN2, CC MetROMS-UHel: Ross_sea: all variables together in hourly files - albicen, aicen, albsnon, snowfracn, vicen, aice, hs, hi, albice, albpnd", albsni, albsno, coszen, apond_ai, snowfrac (nov 2004) Weddell_sea: all variables together in hourly files - albicen, aicen, albsnon, snowfracn, vicen, aice, hs, hi, albice, albpnd", albsni, albsno, coszen, apond_ai, snowfrac (dec 2004) NEMO: albedo, siconc, sithic, sithicat, snthicat, snvolu RACMO: rsus, rsds, siconca, tas, vas, uas, hurs, ps, clt ISPOL_data: FMI sea ice and snow thickness measurements only Marsden_case: HCLIM: alb_i, albl, asn_i, siconca, sit, snd, tas, vas, uas, ps, hurs, clt MAR: one file with SH ,SRF, SOL, MSK, AL, FRA, TT, SP, RH, UV, ZN2, CC MetROMS-UHel: all variables together in hourly files - albicen, aicen, albsnon, snowfracn, vicen, aice, hs, hi, albice, albpnd, albsni, albsno, coszen, apond_ai, snowfrac RACMO: rsus, rsds, siconca, tas, vas, uas, hurs, ps, clt Marsden_data: albedo only satellite images: + CLARA_A3_blue_sky_albedo- Sentinel 2 image: S2B_MSIL2A_20221114T200529_N0400_R099_T58CEU_albedoliang_v2.itf- Landsat 9 image: albedo_broad_Liang_054116_2022_11_01.TIF --- Model data was produced by: HCLIM: Kristiina Verro MAR, NEMO: Damien Maure, Xavier Fettweis RACMO: Christiaan van Dalum, Willem Jan van de Berg MetROMS-UHel: Cecilia Äijälä, Petteri Uotila Observational data was provided/produced by: satellite images: Giacomo Traversa, Biagio Di Mauro FMI sea ice and snow thickness measurements: Milla Johansson Marsden campaign albedo: Roberta Pirazzini, Ruzica Dadic
